Best state fuh sho!


So a little tragedy happened today but it resulted in some good... One of the blueberry seedlings that got recently transplanted to rockwool didn't make it... neither did the other ones i was germing (I still have 5 blueberry in the hydro right now, all are showing cotelydons (spelling???) )

SO I am germinating 6 Skunk#1 seeds to replace the one fallen blueberry... (the math makes sense when you love cannabis as much as I do) heh.

They're soaking in a dish with water overnight before they hit the paper towel on top of the fridge in a cabinet.

I'll get some more pics up soon.

Do most people soak beans in water for 24 hours? I never have. If I see they are having problems I will scrape them a bit (Roor knows the word for that).

[WestCoastToke]

I have read really good grow journals on another site that have used that method....



now for pics.

These are all blueberry, one is very pitiful. Spot the runt!

Looking nice! I love when they just pop the soil.

Boss, I soak mine in a 32oz bottle of water and set it on top of a humidity dome warmer in the dark for 24 hours, they all usually show tip of root by then. Then I just plant them in soil. Works great for me.

I hatch my little one in a paper towel keeping it soaking wet for about 3 to 4 days in complete darkness (checking each day because they dry out fast) and after they have about 1/2" tail I drop them into a fully soaked pellet and that goes into a fully soaked rockwool cube and then that goes into a plastic pot filled with ceramic balls. This has worked for me really well!

Here is a link to a cool starter

^^^if this is against the rules please delete thanks!^^^^^


Also to Toke I bury my rockwool cube under my ceramic pellets and then bring the pellets in around the stalk.

[WestCoastToke]

I usually do that too, but they may be moving to an ebb and flow system here shortly.

[Billy Blica]

cool pics bro, good luck! +rep

[Boss]

I just wondered because I have never had to soak them in anything but a wet paper towel.

[Medical Marijuana]

Just stopping by to check progress. Check yer reps +10

[WestCoastToke]

Thanks for all the reps guys. They all look really good except the Charlie Brown lookin one :)

I'll snap some pics later. All are showing second sets of leaves except the one.



I haven't had any medication in four days due to lack of funding so its getting a little harder to do my day to day gardening and such. A lot of work for a bad back.

[WestCoastToke]

Had a bowl today and got to work in the garden. Got the ebb and flow working... heres the story of the day:


So when I set up that 6 plant system it uses felt wicks (or some material) to bring the water from the bottom of the rockwool... well when I went to set it up I realized that I only had 5 (6 plants). so i cut one in half. Those two halfs weren't barely long enough so they dried out. I watered them and fixed the problem with one, and put the other in the ebb and flow..


Story of the day. Sorry im medicated. I just don't know if any of this makes sense. Pics tonight.
